prizeless
Lacking any award
Prizeless describes something without a prize or reward attached, or something that failed to win any prize.
A prizeless competition offers no tangible reward for winning.
A prizeless entry came away empty-handed: After three prizeless years on the circuit, she finally took home a trophy.
